Tens of thousands of people have joined the conversation on Weibo, China's equivalent of Twitter, and sharing their results.
在微博上(相当于中国的推特),成千上万的人加入到这个话题,分享他们的成果。
Social media users were unrelenting in their derision of the whole concept, with user xiao11211614 writing on Weibo: 'I’m a size smaller than A4. I’m A3.'
有的用户还对A4腰的整个概念进行了赤裸裸的嘲笑,微博名为xiao11211614的用户就是这样,他在微博上写着:“我的身材比A4纸要小,我的是A3。”
Others were equally quick to make fun of the trend by saying that they too have A4 waists, when the paper is held horizontally.
还有其他人也拿这种潮流寻开心,说他们也有A4腰,不过他们是把纸张横着放的。
Meanwhile on Twitter, John Disereits wrote: 'So are they insinuating 4 smaller is better? Not cool to offend the girls who don't measure up in this manner.'
同时在推特上,John Disereits写道:“所以他们是在暗示越小越好吗?这对那些无法用这种方式测量的女孩可是冒犯哦。”
